Savoring the South: Memories of Edna Lewis, the Grande Dame of Southern Cooking

Edna Lewis, known throughout the country as the Grande Dame of Southern cooking, often served as guest chef at Mulloy's restaurant where she and Mulloy soon became friends. For more than 10 years, Miss Lewis shared her recipes, techniques, experiences and recollections with Mulloy who compiled them and presents them here. Organized by season, complete menus savor the delights of both significant holidays and more spontaneous occasions--and each includes sumptuous recipes connected to the land and its seasonal bounty. Some are simple dishes of Lewis' childhood, some are those served in Mulloy's restaurant, and some are those Lewis developed throughout her lifetime that made her food so popular. Sprinkled throughout are hints and insights by Lewis to help the home cook prepare the fresh, natural dishes that have been an integral part of the South. Featuring award-winning writing, stunning color photography, and more than 140 mouth-watering recipes, Savoring the South is a must for anyone who loves fine Southern cuisine.

Published on the occasion of the 250th anniversary of the birth of President James Madison, Plantation Feasts and Festivities not only honors a President and America's first First Lady, trend-setting Dolley Madison, but the time-honored traditions of Virginia plantation life as well. Montpelier, the lifelong home of James Madison, is but one of the plantations featured in this book, a collection of recipes and recollections that defines Virginia cuisine as a "blend of food and traditions, those small parcels of culture that combined to form the plantation." Organized by season, complete menus are provided for such significant holidays as Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas, as well as more spontaneous occasions as an afternoon tea in the garden or tail gate picnic at the races. Complementing each menu and its corresponding recipes is a brief history of a featured plantation, as well as a narrative describing the cultural background of the holiday or occasion and how it was traditionally celebrated in plantation Virginia. .
